Students were connected with facultymentors in their discipline through lunches that the SSP faculty team provided each week. Theselunches helped reduce food insecurity while also providing an inviting atmosphere for interactionbetween peers and faculty. Lunches also offered an opportunity to have career discussions andbring in professional development speakers like student organization leaders and graduatestudents.At the start of the first quarter of their sophomore year, nineteen students were either still ontrack or just one quarter behind in their engineering curriculum

Due to the unique role of faculty members in theacademic and social development of international students, understanding the students’ needsmay position faculty members to support the students better in the first semester and beyond.Providing opportunities for international students to engage in collaborative problem-solving,networking events, and seminars helps international students feel a sense of belonging [7].Moreover, in smaller programs where experienced faculty members can provide mentorship,career advice, professional guidance, and encouragement, international students enjoy and thrivein a fruitful

Student Interest in Agriculture: A Work in ProgressAbstractAgricultural & Biological Engineering faculty have been concerned for several years regardingthe lack of interest in high school students in good-paying technology-oriented careers inagriculture and have developed some academic modules to hopefully stimulate some interest inthese areas. Through a USDA-NIFA grant, the authors have developed three secondary levelcurricular programs designed to provide an overview of the modern technical elements of theagricultural industry. Classroom activities for five weeks of daily one hour contact time weredeveloped for an introduction to aerial drones, vehicle balance, and robotics with agriculture.These modules were designed for testing in a local

According to women faculty, what factors contribute to persistent gender disparity in engineering faculty in Ethiopian engineering colleges? 2. What strategies and interventions can be implemented to address the persistent gender disparity in engineering faculty and women's career advancement in engineering fields?This study's significance lies in informing Ethiopian policy and decision-makers within thehigher education systems.

Therefore, it’s important to support women enrolled in graduate programs and,coincidentally, support their career trajectory by understanding how underlying power dynamicsand oppression may contribute to this underrepresentation.It is important to support women through their journey after entering a STEM program [3].Mentoring has been found to support students’ success in the STEM field.

Stacking multiple high-impact practices has been demonstrated to hold potential as a multiplier effect [13,4,14-15].Where experiencing a single high-impact practice is good, experiencing more than one can beeven better. In this study we ask, To what extent does stacking additional high-impact practiceson top of course-based PBL provide additional benefits for students?

Such experiences are also an important way toattract more students to STEM careers. Currently however, the number of high-quality STEMeducation resources and materials available to preschool educators is limited.

However, there is a pressing need to attractunderrepresented minority and first-generation college students to STEM disciplines, as currentrepresentation from these groups remains low [1]. An obstacle to the production of STEMgraduates in the United States is the challenge to develop students' interest in math and science[2]. In many K–12 systems, there is a disconnect between math, science, and other disciplines, tothe real world and students often fail to recognize the links between their studies and potentialSTEM careers [2].One way to foster students' interest in math and science is to use informal learning to connectthese subjects to real-world contexts and careers [2].
